I have finished these lessons and I have wrote a lot of stuff down. I really would like to go back over these lessons before moving on to your next lessons. When I'm done once again. Do I come back to the site and find the next lessons?
Paul Corgan
I've only taught this course (the Essentials of Piano Playing) so far but plan to do a follow up course eventually. For now, I'd advise just reviewing like you said and then trying out some stuff on your own from what you've learned. Best of luck!
